I've got all the other categories figured out, I know where to input Flirty, Romantic, Seductive, to get photos to appear there, but I can not figure out how to change the pics on the bottom of that page. When I right click on them, it just says they are in products, ssems like it should be an easy fix. What am I missing?

Hi Cheri,

 

I'm afraid I don't understand your question:

 

Which pics on which page? Can you be more explicit?

There are 9 photos in two columns below the red bar. So at the top of the page there's a nbig pic on the left (Halloween), then three smaller pics on the right (Flirty, etc). Below those photos is a red bar, then the nine photos I need to change. I see in my catalog how I can input certain words in certain fields to make the photos appear in almost every other area I want. All of the categories on the left links, the three sections on the top right, the Specials, New, etc. everything except how to change those nine photos.

Hi Cheri,

 

Since those 9 pics are each associated with unique products, I think you would change them by editing each product in your Admin/Catalog/Categories/Products section.

 

Simply choose the product in Admin and on the editing page, upload the new photo.

 

Hope this helps,

Jade

I guess I'm still not being clear. I have over 170 items uploaded via the method your describing, I just don't know how to "tell" the picture to populate that particular piece of real estate. Does that make sense? For example, if I want a photo to appear in the section call Flirty, I input that word on the line "Style" and it send the photo to that section. But how do I make that photo go to the homepage?

Right, but how to add to the homepage? I have 9 pics, which looks dumb, should be 10, and I want to change those pics. I've tried changing the Style to Home, Homepage, Home Page, that doesn't work. Is there a different field I should be using? Or should I be entering a URL? I thought maybe someone could tell by right clicking on one of the photos and looking at the properties.

 

I think the answer to your question is all of my items are listed in the same Category on the admin panel. Then I input Panties or Babydolls into a field and it sends the photo to that category on the left side of the homepage.

When I look at the properties of one of the photos, this is what I get:

 

http://www.ohcheri.com/product_thumb.php?i...w=100&h=125

 

Does this mean I need to get into the "coded" part of my database to change this photo? I can't do it from my catalog page in the admin control panel?

Hi Cheri,

 

From what I see and in particular, how you describe your admin processes, it seems that your website and particularly your homepage have been greatly customized.

 

For instance, I don't recognize your description of your process below. I've used osCommerce a lot, but I'm not familiar with any of the things you're saying you do in order to update the pictures.

 

I've tried changing the Style to Home, Homepage, Home Page, that doesn't work. Is there a different field I should be using? Or should I be entering a URL?

 

...

As a result, I can't think of any way to help you. If you didn't build the site or customize it yourself, you may have to contact the developer who did the work for you.

 

Or possibly, you've got a contribution installed that allows you this kind of control. In which case, hopefully someone here will recognize what contribution it is and will know how to use it.

 

Sorry I can't be more help,

Jade

Welcome to the world of Template Monster.

 

What you are looking at is the New Products of the month that was coded without the center box heading. You will need to find the code for new procucts in your index.php file and remove it.

 

It will look something like this:

 

<tr>

<td><?php include(DIR_WS_MODULES . FILENAME_NEW_PRODUCTS); ?></td>

</tr>

 

The location of the code should be found tward the bottom of the file.

 

Good luck with your template as most code has been hacked and moved by the template maker and there will not always be help in this forum for your template because of the customization practices of Template Monster.

Will this also lose my New Products section? Or will it become something else?

The New Products of the month are either there or not. You can not control those item without making code changes as those are the last items added to your catalog.

 

If you do not wish to use the new products of the month you will need to remove that code and then code in the items you want to display by coding boxes into your languages folder or by direct code in your index.php

Changing the pics named Flirty, Romantic and Seductive is quiet easy and you can do it easily on your even. Just right click on the Flirty image and choose properties, you can see the image path as http://www.ohcheri.com/images/header_04.jpg. All you have to do is replace this image named header_04.jpg with a new picture of your choice. But keep one thing in mind the picture name/size should be the same as it is now otherwise the page settings will become unstable. If you have any more problems you can ask me for the same :)
